America Precolombina Project….

 This image collection is another look into Colombia and  American history, trough Precolumbian pottery art. Our  proposal is giving a voice to those pottery artifacts that  rest silent and forgotten in the intermediate America  archaeological museums. Looking at the knowledge  hidden behind archaeological pottery, we’ll think of that  maybe history of all the Americas has to be rewritten.





 An Exclusive Collection

 Intermediate archaeological area of America (Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Panama and north of Brazil) is  little known. Of Precolumbian America are well known Mexican Aztecs, Centro American Mayas and Peruvian  Incas but very few people have seen ancient art from Colombian Tumacos, Tayronas, Muiscas...


 These images were in part published by Fondo de Promoción de la Cultura in the book collection ARTE DE  LA TIERRA (Bogotá, Colombia, 1988 / 1992, 9 volumes, collection ISBN 958-9003-43-5).
 (See book covers)


 Neither commercial vendors nor subscription services that offer Visual Resources Collections about Art and  History for academic use has in their catalogs images of Colombian archaeological pottery. This image set is  an exclusive collection in digital format.

 All of the Archaeological Colombia visual collection’s images are the original creation of his author Alejandro  Triana, and are protected under International Copyright Laws like the Berne Convention.
